St. Maarten – The Ministry of finance will give motorists one week respite after Friday to get their new number plates for the year 2014 on their vehicles. Prime Minister Wescot-Williams said yesterday that this decision is a result of consultation with finance Minister Hassink. “February is a short month and some people only get paid on the first or the second of the following month,” she said. “That is why there is some leniency.”
